Coaches refusing to take courses.
MrCell0phane replied to toiletfootball's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Funny, but I encountered this just the other day for the first time ever. Better I think than having your board dole out courses to random members of your B team staff while denying your first team requests due to "lack of funds" -
Can't Sign Any Staff
MrCell0phane replied to steve.battisti's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
You may need to select "Add Key Staff" (or whatever the option is) when setting up your game and just go with whomever you get. -
My personal favourite was my STARTING right back leading the charge into my office that he felt I was treating my BACKUP right back unfairly by not giving him more playing time. Ummmm...

Scouting a tournament in FM24
MrCell0phane replied to AmazingSteve's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Also, you SHOULD get periodic news items asking you if you would like to scout certain upcoming competitions. However, I have not gotten a ton of results from this. While cumbersome, your best bet may be to individually scout players from the teams participating in that particular competition. -
Personally, I don't have a problem with players getting upset over what I've said. I'm sure it happens in real life. What I DO take issue with is that this same conversation then leads to that member of my team to be unhappy for MONTHS as a result and can lead to bigger issues inside the locker room.

Player roles
MrCell0phane commented on fixxer84's issue in Player Development, Injuries, Finances and Training
Following. In my full release save, my primary LW is right-footed and my primary RW is left. Had success with a similar set up in the beta by adding the "Cuts Inside" player instruction to the winger role. -
Excessive Major injuries
MrCell0phane commented on ootek's issue in Player Development, Injuries, Finances and Training
Had two goalkeepers within a month or so of each other break (or fracture) their lower arms while "catching a ball" in a match. For that to happen twice to one squad in a relatively short time period defies the odds, you have to admit that. -
Turn off backround picture
MrCell0phane replied to jmf1488's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
I had the same issue when I downloaded a backgrounds/stadium pack. I just ended up deleting the folder with the large background images and everything is fine. YMMV -
FM24 Early Access Official Feedback Thread
MrCell0phane replied to Kyle Brown's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
I refer to my club as "Woodwork FC" if that answers your question. -
FM24 Early Access Official Feedback Thread
MrCell0phane replied to Kyle Brown's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
He LITERALLY was playing straight up center mid against Everton in the second half of the Derby. -
I don't understand tactics (FM '22)
MrCell0phane replied to ScotchWhisky's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies Discussion
What do your scouts look like? I ask because, at age 26, this player should be at his full potential as players really don't grow beyond age 23, especially not that much. I wonder if your scouts aren't very good, so that is their way of saying "we think he's at this level, but we really don't know, so maybe he's a lot better than that?" Also, this guy is exceptionally mediocre. His corner ability isn't worth his inability to pass or shoot or play defense. -
I don't understand tactics (FM '22)
MrCell0phane replied to ScotchWhisky's topic in Tactics, Training & Strategies Discussion
I have also come to discover that the most important thing about determining if a player can play a position is not his star rating or preferences, but his attribute effectiveness in that particular role. Had a LAM who was the worst member of our squad on paper (2 stars in the Bundesliga) but he was so effective because everything he was actually good at fit perfectly with the role we put him in (IW-S). -
Typically, I find that when I get this message, my driver does, in fact, need to be updated. I think it just happens to be synced with Nvidia's release schedule, so it could just be coincidence.

Hitting the Woodwork Way Too Much!
MrCell0phane replied to Weston's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
The other night, my team hit the crossbar with a shot and sent the rebound off of the post, so I feel this hard. -
Where to find attendance?
MrCell0phane replied to oi_oi_ginger_roy's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
In a match, you can find this information on the "Match Stats" screen, which you can access wither by clicking on the score bug in the top left or can be few in the tablet. -
This may depend on what league you're in (my experience is in the lower English non-league tiers) but have you tried getting fringe players on non-contracts? With these, you're only paying players when you actually use them and not a consistent weekly/monthly/annual wage. There is an increased risk of them signing for someone else on a free, of course, but it's an easy way to flesh out a squad.

Central Defenders Condition dropping?
MrCell0phane replied to shakey.bridge's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Playing in lower league, have a superstar CB with 13 stamina getting tired in the 30th minute, even starting the game in perfect fitness. Should not be happening with a 20 year old. I'm pushing 50 and think I could last longer in a semi-pro football match. -
Has work on FM 24 begun?
MrCell0phane replied to Polando's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
I read something similar. While the desire was to add the women's game to FM24, it isn't looking to be practical to get it right for the coming version and most likely something to be saved for FM25. -
Who am I answering to in team meetings?
MrCell0phane replied to phd_angel's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Worst thing I've done in my save is accidentally initiating a team meeting. In fact, the only success I've ever had in a team meeting was at the end of the season saying "we are shooting for the playoffs. Enjoy your vacation, I'm not promising anything else right now." Anything else upsets the apple cart. -
Silly Loan demands
MrCell0phane replied to Internomad's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
The whole purpose of a loan deal is for the player to play. If you don't plan on putting the kid in the sticks, then there is no incentive for the parent club to loan him to you, because there will be another squad that will.
